Sad EndingIt started out good... i was happy with my boyfriend... I was 15 and he was 17... We started having sex about 3months into the relationship... I thought we were forever... It was going really good... I was on birth control so we never bothered to use a condom... Plus he always pulled out lol... One morning i woke up and felt horrible... I told him i thought i was... He told me to take a test, i did... It came out negative... My sister said it was too early and to take another one in about 3 days... i did this one came out positive... I was scared but i had so many people behind me... I didn't tell anyone in my family, exept for my sisters... He told his family and they took me to the doctors to confirm... I was 2weeks... Everything was good we were happy... One day i went out of town and started to feel horrible... I started cramping so i went to the bathroom cause it felt like my period... I thought to myself... it cant be because im pregnant... When i pulled down my pants... There it was... A gray and pink bloody blob... My baby... I had a miscarriage... Me and my boyfriend made it several months after that, but a lot of things caused us to end it... He was going to be there for it... My due date was May 8,2010 now i always use condoms... cause apparently birth control doesn't protect fully JD my teenage pregnancymy name is kristen. i live in florida. my story begins when i met my boyfriend nick. it was like love at first sight. that may sound weird considering i was 16. we started going out and after only just 2 months i found out i was pregnant. i was shocked and scared to being having a baby at just 16. when i was 3 months pregnant i finally told my mom. she was mad at first but she finally got over it. my boyfriend was totally supportive at first. i started to think everything was gonna be ok. but everything changed the day i went into labor. i was in labor for over 13 hours before my baby boy came out. we named him bentley. i got the name from the show teen mom. my boyfriend nick decided he didn't want to be with me or the baby anymore when bentley was only 1 hour old. it broke my heart that my baby wouldn't have a daddy. my baby bentley is still only 2 weeks old. it has been really hard taking care of bentley by myself but i don't regret anything. i do wish i would have waited a few years so maybe nick would still be around, but i love taking care of my baby and i love this responsibility. bentley is my everything now and i don't think i could have it any other way than him being right here with me. it did change my whole life though. i had to give up my dream of going to collage, i cant get a job with my lack of education, and i will have to live with my parents for a while till i get back on my feet. my advice to all the teens out there having sex is use protection or take birth control. you will have a far better future if you do. still like i said i don't regret having my baby bentley, but you might regret it. so like i said- be careful. sex is absolutely NOT A JOKE! kristen kirk My StoryWell, My Story Is That I Was 13 & Pregnant....I Had a Wonderful Boyfriend; I Loved Him So Much..Till One Day I Just Decided To Give Him What He Wanted.

Thanks For Reading(: Valeria I Finally Have my KingWell unlike other girls I was different..I dressed differently...I talked differently. I wasn't the average...I started having sex at a young age. I was eleven when I got my first real kiss from my best friend. He was four years older then me. I never thought I would like him like i did. In my mind we were just friends. But in the back of my mind, I was in love with him. He treated me like the world was mine and no one could take it away from me. My two older brothers and he and I grew up together so we were close. Well one night we were talking and we were home alone. He kissed me. I was scared but I wanted him to kiss me again. After awhile I just relaxed. We both had never did this before so we were nervous as EVER! ! We used a condom and everything. So the sex continued over the months; we always wore protection. Then one morning I woke up and I felt HORRIBLE. I was vomiting and everything was in pain. I felt like crap. I told my boyfriend and he took care of me. I finally asked myself, AM I PREGNANT? I asked myself a million times before I asked my boyfriend. We just denied it; i couldn't have been because we used protection. We went to the store, bought a pregnancy test and got some real answers...and what would you know, I was 3 weeks pregnant. We were terrified. I couldn't stop a single tear. I didn't know how to manage...I prayed. I finally got the guts to tell my mom and she just cried. My brothers and my dad had it out for me until my 3rd month. I was huge. My boyfriend never left my side.I stayed in school. I wasn't ashamed. Then it was done...my water broke at Kroger..lol...and on August 4,2005, King David was born. I never smiled so much in my life...all of it was worth it because I finally have my KING. My boyfriend are no l are no longer together, but hes still my best friend and I love him because he gave me the most beautiful gift in the world...Life. That"s my story and even though I was young, I'm not saying go and have sex and get pregnant. To all the young girls- live your life, wait for that special one. Your body is a beautiful temple...cherish it...Love, TK Tk Unplanned MiracleI was 14 when I lost my virginity. I lost it with my boyfriend, Denyan. Denyan was the nicest, most loving boyfriend I ever had. We were going out for 5 months.When I got pregnant, I went to the doctors with my sister who is 16. As soon as I found out that I was pregnant, I burst out into tears. I didn't know what to do. I told Denyan and he told me that it was going be okay, and that he was going be there for me and the baby. And he was.When I told my mum, she told me to go find somewhere else to live. I wished my dad was around to help me because he would of really helped me through this time. He himself had 11 kids, but my dad died when I was 12. 9 months went by really fast and before I knew it I was in the hospital giving birth. All of my family was there, except my mum. In the labor room there was only the doctors, me and Denyan. I was in labour for 11 hours and all of a sudden I heard my beautiful baby cry. It turned out that he was a boy.
